Assassin

I work in the dead of nightWhen the roads are quietNo one is aroundTo track my moves

Racing the yellow lightsTo find the gate is openShe's waiting in the roomI just slip on through

You get inYou get doneAnd then you get goneYou never leave a trace or show your faceYou get gone

Should have turned aroundAnd left before the sun came up againBut the sun came up again

Enter the morning lightTo find the day is burning the curtains and the wineIn a little white roomNo, I'm not aloneHer head is heavy on meShe's sleeping like a childWhat could I do?

You get inYou get doneAnd then you get goneYou never leave a trace or show your faceYou get gone

Should have turned aroundAnd left before the sun came up againBut the sun came up again

I was a killer, was the best they'd ever seenI'd steal your heart before you ever heard a thingI'm an assassin and I had a job to doLittle did I know that girl was an assassin too

Suddenly I'm in over my head and I can hardly breatheSuddently I'm floating over her bed and I feel everythingSuddently I know exactly what I did, but I cannot move a thingSuddently I know exactly what I'd done and what it's gonna mean to me, mean to meI'm gone

I was a killer, was the best they'd ever seenI'd steal your heart before you ever heard a thingI'm an assassin and I had a job to doLittle did I know that girl was an assassin too

She's an assassinShe's an assassinShe's an assassinShe's an assassin and she had a job to do
